wilsonf Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I need to beg or borrow a metal detector to pass over an object to ascertain if it is metal or contains metal. Happy to come to you and let you give the object the 'once over'. Please only respond if you have or know someone that has a metal detector. Suggestions like pass an electric currant through it, or use a meter to check continuity are not helpful as materials other than metal are conductive. Many thanks in anticipation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 A magnet would be simpler and easier to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattjock Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Just download a metal detector app to your smartphone. I have used this several times to find pipes and wireing in walls before drilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
